Study: Most #Plastics Leach #HormoneLike #Chemicals

by Jon Hamilton
March 2, 2011

"Most plastic products, from #SippyCups to #FoodWraps, can release chemicals that act like the sex hormone #estrogen, according to a study in Environmental Health Perspectives.

"The study found these chemicals even in products that didn't contain #BPA a compound in certain plastics that's been widely criticized because it mimics estrogen.

"Many plastic products are now marketed as BPA-free, and manufacturers have begun substituting other #chemicals whose effects aren't as well known.

"But it's still unclear whether people are being harmed by BPA or any other so-called estrogenic chemicals in plastics. Most studies of health effects have been done in mice and rats.

"The new study doesn't look at health risks. It simply asks whether common plastic products release estrogen-like chemicals other than BPA.

"The researchers bought more than 450 plastic items from stores including Walmart and Whole Foods. They chose products designed to come in contact with food — things like baby bottles, deli packaging and flexible bags, says George Bittner, one of the study's authors and a professor of biology at the University of Texas, Austin."

I do not expect it
to win an Academy Award
but by far
the best performance
of the last year
was the one put on
by all of the people
acting like the pandemic is over.

Everyone: a phone with good battery lifetime, replaceable battery, feels solid, doesn't crack screen... Secure, good biometrics...Maybe doesn't spy on me...

Highest tech consumer electronics brands: thinnest, lightest, folding, esoteric confusing naming scheme, landfill economy baby!

I wish people would learn not to expect the incendiary rhetoric from diplomats or legal analysts that they get from political pundits. Both cultures have subtle signals they send to their counterparts without having to jump up and down, but still have serious implications. Israel is beginning to be isolated at the diplomatic level, and the court will deliver the last word on Friday.

Some of us old Seattleites feel nostalgic for pre-financialized #Boeing.

Regarding the 737 du jour:

"The Boeing QA writes another record in CMES (again, the correct venue) stating (with pictures) that Spirit has not actually reworked the discrepant rivets, they *just painted over the defects*. In Boeing production speak, this is a “process failure”. For an A&P mechanic at an airline, this would be called “federal crime”."

And more missing bolts.
